Presentations
Scaling up on the web
The drive to continuous delivery, micro services and PaaS includes the need to auto scale and potentially auto provision services. This session will identify the legacy thinking of a statically partitioned world and drive to the scalable world of Apache Mesos.
Fault Tolerance to a Fault
If there is a safe bet, it is that everything fails. From hard drives to power supplies, from routers to software, everything fails. Frankly a planned upgrade of a production service is planned down time, or a failure to continue services for a planned period of time.
This session will look at planning for failure by deploying into an Apache Mesos cluster.
